Do you have a hunger for God? If we don't feel strong desires for the
manifestation of the glory of God, it is not because we have drunk
deeply and are satisfied. It is because we have nibbled so long at the
table of the world. Our soul is stuffed with small things, and there is
no room for the great. If we are full of what the world offers, then
perhaps a fast might express, or even increase, our soul's appetite for
God. Between the dangers of self-denial and self-indulgence is the path
of pleasant pain called fasting.
